Book NO:9 in The Twelve Titles Challenge
It’s the end of the third quarter and time for another release. This title came as a surprise. I’m a panster…for those that don’t know what that is, it means I don’t plot or plan out my stories. I let the characters talk. It sort of makes me a voyeur and the first to read their story. My writing style is very different from my non-writing life. In most every other aspect of my life, I’m a planner.
I knew when I set out to do this challenge I was going to publish a title a month. In fact, I knew pretty much each month what kind of story I wanted to publish [i.e., short story, novella, novelette or full length]. However, this month, I ran into a little glitch. The original title for this month, needed another read through and clean up. By the time I finished, I was in jeopardy of not making my deadline. A little chat with my editor and I decided to make a switch. That’s not exactly true, I needed a story.
I moved November’s story to September, sort of. The title originally scheduled for November needed a little too much clean up to make the deadline. Thank God for this story, because that’s where it came from. A little prayer and a weekend in front of the computer and a story was born.
I hope you enjoy it. And if you do, please leave a review at the outlet you downloaded it from. Thanks.
Here’s Book NO:9…

I’m At The KOBO Labor Day Event
Happy Labor Day Weekend. Or as some would say, happy last summer holiday.
To celebrate this wonderful holiday, I’m partying with KOBO. If you’ve been following my blog, you may have noticed I recently made most of my books available at KOBO. KOBO is a great book site. Let me rephrase that. It’s a great reader site. Not only do they have books, they also have magazines, their own ereader and ereader app. The app allows you to read from the KOBO library on your ereader device of choice.
This holiday, I’m participating in their Labor Day Event. It’s a great time to try out KOBO. This weekend they are offering several bestsellers and new releases like my book, “WHAT MY FRIENDS DON’T KNOW,” available at a special price. All the books in this event are available for $4.99 or less.
If you haven’t already read any of the books in The Alex Chronicles series, this is the perfect time to do so. Book one, “WHAT MY FRIENDS DON’T KNOW,” is on special for $0.99. While you’re there, also download the FREE prequel to the series, “GIRLFRIENDS & SECRETS.” It’s like a BOGO. This special price is only available in the US and Canada.
Have a great holiday.

MISS MATCH RELEASE DAY!
I’m so excited about my eleventh book, MISS MATCH. This is the story of the newest couple that’s been hanging out in my head…Charlotte and Noah. She’s a matchmaker and he’s hired her to find his younger brother a wife. But like most good plans, there’s always a glitch or a hitch.
Meet Charlotte…
“It’s been quite a while since a man made my heart skip a beat and my uterus dance. Okay, so maybe I exaggerated a little about the heart thing. The first time I bumped into Noah and brushed his chest…I really need to start paying attention when I walk. But this time, being a lot distracted might pay off. What am I saying? I can’t get involved with him. He’s a client. I mean his brother is the client. Noah’s not even my type, but his so fine. Every time I look into those coal black eyes, my body…this is insane. I shouldn’t be having these thoughts or dreams, even if they are delicious. I keep telling myself to remember my rule, ‘Don’t get involved with the client.’ But what about the client’s brother?”

Washington D.C. Research for MISS MATCH
I apologize for the lengthy post. Last week, I was in Washington D.C. [it’s one of my favorite cities. To me, it’s like New York and Paris had a baby names Washington D.C. Okay, so that sounds a little lame. But this time I stayed in Potomac. My mom was there for a conference so I tagged along. It was the perfect time for me to do a little research and relax.
I love D.C. Whenever I’m there, I try to visit as many museums and monuments as possible. This time, because I was staying out of the city, I had a rental car and drove in to the city. And true to my nature, I got lost, but that was the cool part. I got to see some things I hadn’t before….China town, State Department, old-town Arlington, and the Nationals Ball Park.
My favorite thing this trip was standing where Dr. King stood and gave his infamous speech. WOW! I got to spend some time in my other favorite city Georgetown. I go there every time in D.C. for one reason Dean & Deluca. Side note, I had the most amazing truffle gouda cheese. It was like eating butter. Now another one of my favorites is in D.C….Paul. It’s one of my favorite Parisian Patisseries. I love their Parisian sandwich…simple ham, cheese with butter on a baguette. So good.
Here are some images from my trip. The Washington Monument from the spot where Dr. King stood, the Hope Diamond, First Lady Michelle Obama’s first inaugural gown, Dr. King plaque and a selfie of me at the Dr. King monument. [Click the images to enlarge view]
The reason I went to D.C. is because I have a couple of books, more like series I’m working on with characters based in Washington D.C. Fret not, they aren’t politicians. The first series is MISS MATCH [releasing next week]. It’s the story of Charlotte “Charlie” Griggs. She’s a matchmaker for the wealthy and elite. She’s amazing at helping her clients find love. Unfortunately, her own love life is in the toilet.
I wanted to do something different this time. Instead of setting the story in New York or one of the more affluent cities in California, I used Washington D.C. as her base. Being in D.C. helped me get a feel for the environment and what her world is like. In this book, there aren’t a lot of references or D.C. points of interests, the city is sort of a supporting character. Did you catch that part about “this book”? Smile. There’s a second book coming. I took a few mental while on holiday.
The other book will be out sometime next year. I’m keeping the title to myself right now. That story revolves around a very wealthy D.C. attorney who’s fallen in love with the wrong woman. His story is really the one I researched on my trip. A little info on him. He’s gorgeous…roughly six feet four, built like a muscular dark chocolate wall. He rides a motorcycle when he’s not behind the wheel of his luxury sedan. Like most of the men in my books, he cooks, loves hard and is plagued by dreams of this forbidden love. So far, I love the way his story is coming.
But the next few days, it’s all about book eight in my 12 Titles in 12 Months challenge. MISS MATCH. I like Charlotte and hope you do too.
Happy Reading.
